From a club playlist to a game-ready guessing game. No fiddling in Canva.
Pick your dance tracks
Import a Spotify, YouTube, Tidal, Deezer or Apple Music playlist full of house, techno, trance and EDM, or search for songs manually. Your selection makes the game.

Each card automatically gets a QR code and a verified release year. Choose a card style that fits the club mood.
Print & play
Download the PDF and print at home for the pre-party, or order professionally printed cards for a sturdy dance deck.
The dance floor as a card game
Perfect for the warm-up
A deck of club hits works at a birthday, a festival pre-glow or a night with friends who clock every drop. The beats come out, and so do the arguments.
Guess the year
Players guess the release year and place each card in the right spot on the timeline. Sounds easy until a '99 classic lands next to a recent edit.
Mix with the original Hitster
Our cards share the format and QR style of the original Hitster game: add your dance deck to an existing set or play it as a standalone pack.
Your own picks
No fixed list. You decide whether it goes pure techno, broad EDM radio hits, or a mix across decades of dance.
Building a dance deck
A good dance deck plays on recognition. Build around a few pillars: the early house and techno that shaped the genre, the trance and eurodance peaks, and the EDM radio hits of recent years. Spread the years wide, because dance runs from the early 90s to last month. That makes guessing trickier than you would think: a synth line from '95 and one from 2015 can sound suspiciously alike.
Keep it around 50 to 80 cards for a game that flows. Drop in a few obscure club tracks to make the experts sweat. Ready to build? Start the cards, or first read how to make your own Hitster cards.

It works! Nice game for music lovers.
This site is awesome. So much fun to create your own cards and play them with friends. If I could give 6 stars I would.
I really useful for upgrade this game the official song card is a bit less
Amazing project. With just a few clicks your own Spotify playlist is turned into a Hitster game. Keep it up. The pricing is also really very fair
Easy to use, and the result is exactly what I expected!
Easy to use. Happy with my own cards.
Super simple process, works like a charm!
Great for creating your own cards and QR codes. Plus you play with the same app
Beautiful idea and a beautiful app, fast and easy to use
Worked perfectly! Thank you so much!
Best app for creating cards for a music game!
It was really great. I made a birthday playlist for a friend, and with Hitify she could play her own personal Hitster. 🥰
Works great and nicely priced.
Really nice and easy!
So incredibly easy to do, and so much fun for adding a personal touch to a party, a special event or any other occasion. Really recommended. You can let your creativity run wild, or just go for convenience and let it do the work for you.
Nice to be able to turn your own playlist into a Hitster-like game. The only downside is that you hear the songs without the intro.
Being able to create new card packs for Hitster is a real treat. A great app.
Quick and smooth. Easy to create your own playing cards. There are no limits. I recommend it
Very easy-to-use app. I especially like that you can submit a correction for the year, and if it's right it gets applied straight away. The different ways to vary the printout are great too. Highly recommended!
Great service. It was super fast, it works without any problems and looks really great.
Frequently asked questions
How many dance tracks should I pick?
For a party game, 50 to 80 cards works best. Want a big timeline of the whole genre? You can make up to 1000 cards.
How does "guess the year" work?
Players scan the QR code, listen to the track and guess the release year. The card is placed in the right spot on the timeline. Exactly like in the original Hitster.
Does it work with the original Hitster?
Yes. Our cards share the same format and QR codes that play directly, so you can mix your dance deck with an existing Hitster set or play it as a standalone pack.
Are the years of remixes and edits accurate?
We verify every release year via MusicBrainz and ISRC. With dance, a remix can carry a different year than the original: you choose which version goes in your deck.
